I have a number of hosts that send postscript files to 
apollos via remote lpr. The problem is many of the postscript
files have very long lines, and lpr (or lpd - I'm not sure
which) refuses to deal with anything longer than 130 
characters. I've tried various options for both to no avail.

I'm running SR10.2.0.6 on DN3500's and using /com/prf as the
print command in /etc/printcap. PRF alone doesn't care how
long lines are once it recognizes the file is postscript.

Any suggestions?
